My year in pictures: A photo a week project

About the project and photographer

In 2012 I challenged myself to take, edit and post a photo every day. It was a success, so in 2013 I tried it again with the aim to post a photo each week. It was less challenging in some ways, and more in others, so also a great learning experience.

After an overseas move to Dublin, Ireland in 2013, I decided to pace myself and let my day to day experience with photographing a new country develop more naturally. I still took photos on a very regular basis, from quick shots on my phone as I walked the city, to larger shoots with my DSLR on day trips or vacations around Europe.

Now, in 2016 and 2017 life has taken a new turn as I’m expecting my first child. As I entered my third trimester, I realized that I had gone back to my photo of the week route in the form of self portraiture. It seemed like the perfect time to revive my blog and see where it leads me!

With a baby on the way, a recent career change, and so many unknowns ahead of me, I want to continue to use my camera more, improve my photography skills, document what I’m up to and see what I can make of it all.
